Cold Water Falls On a small dirt road below Independence Pass, we found a small brook still flowing water. I had to stop to look, listen and shoot…. with a camera. It is so calm and peaceful in places like this and when you add a little snow and cold, that just...
Twin Lakes Awaiting Winter Twin Lakes in Central Colorado is a man made lake – well two that sits at about 9200 feet. The mountains around it climb from there, some up to over 14,000. It is beautiful any time of the year and this shot is one from early winter...
Up the Snowy Road of Independence If you take the road up to Independence Pass, you will find a road that takes off to the south. We just decided to follow the road and see where it went. It ended up at the bottom of the bowl that is just below the pass. It was a fun...
The Reds, Whites & Blues of Colorado Looking west and a little south from Leadville, you will find Mt. Massive. This is early winter looking from the edge of town. I really liked the reds of the field, the blue of the sky and the whites of the clouds and snow....
Clinton Reservoir About 15 miles from our house, you will find Clinton Reservoir. It is at almost 11,000 feet and the mountain range behind it is stunning. This day, the lake was glassy and I was able to get some nice reflections. This site is still breath taking to...

Here are a number of photos from our travels in Alaska. These are from a couple of different trips – 2005 & 2010. We enjoyed both trips. One of them was the inland passage cruise and the other was a land & sea trip that started in Anchorage, went to...
Sunflowers from the Banana Belt – Buena I don’t often think of sunflowers in Colorado. We saw them all the time in New Mexico and Arizona, but here in the high country, I tend to think of other flowers. These were found about 40 miles south of Leadville...
View from Above – Turquoise Lake On the road to Hagerman Pass, there are many places you can stop for many reasons – the hike, the wild berries, the wildlife and of course the view. This is the scene looking back at Turquoise lake, about 5 miles from our...
High Mountain Reds We’ve seen this flower before on some of our journeys, but only at high elevation. I’m not sure, but I believe they are called a Red Stonecrop. I don’t know that they are so “beautiful,” but they are interesting and...
